Storage Curse

So I was doing my (almost) daily read of Wired.com and found an article by Momus that really hit home.

The Curse of Storage. So many points he makes are amazingly relevant in my life as well. All my life I’ve been such a pack rat that I have these massive accumulations of junk. It’s really hard to get through these when you’ve been this way for so many years. Though I must disagree on one thing, at least for my life. If I truly need to put it in long term storage – get rid of it. I could see if you lived in many places throughout the world over the years like he does, but, for me – staying quite close to the same area (yes, I know, how boring) it just makes no sense to keep long term storage.

Tonight I also bought Delicious Library in hopes to catalog my music, movie, and book collections. I think this will be a step in the right direction. Plus, Delicious Monster was having their ‘Delicious Gambler’s Sale’ so how could I pass up such a deal!! Quite impressive software, but hey, we are taking about software that runs on a mac aren’t we?!?!?! ;)

Dinner

So tonight, we’re sitting there eating dinner and I had to laugh. Remember the movie, ‘A Christmas Story’? Well, more specifically, the part where the Mom is getting Ralph’s little brother to eat and she asks him ‘How does the little piggy eat’. I found it hilarious that to get little man to eat tonight, we asked him to remember how Bruce (Pixar’s Finding Nemo) ate.

movie night

So Dawn and I actually had a night to ourselves. We took the little man over to a friends house so he could play for a while. Wow was that nice. It was only a few hours, but it was nice nonetheless.

Went and saw Pirates 2 finally. I did really enjoy it. And the theater was packed still. I must admit, possibly my favorite part was the fact that Davey Jones has a VERY Cthulhu influenced look to him. Can’t beat a Lovecraft reference. ;) Tomorrow we may head down to the beach and I do need to brave a trip into that garage of ours to begin cleaning it out.

So far I’m liking this ecto software. May need to make a purchase.

Hello world!

Welcome to the blog. Those of you who know me, know we also maintain a family site, but, I thought it would be an interesting outlet for me to keep my own as well. Hope it goes well.
